From very early on we are trained to get validation and approval and love from other people. It feels good when people are shining good energy on to you, it feels nice, and it helps to ease any resistance you have against yourself. Unfortunately, people can be fickle, their minds can change, and at the drop of a hat, they can suddenly find you less acceptable, or even unlikable, and you might be left waiting for someone’s permission to let down the barriers to loving or accepting yourself once again.
